Lots of people. One thing to keep in mind with Cisco is it's
relatively easy initially and/or after the fact to set a policy the
Cisco will use as an initiator that's different from what it will
accept as responder. To minimize any such issues, set the P1 on
pfSense to proposal checking "obey". Otherwise you may find you can
initiate fine from your side, but the Cisco side can't initiate from
their end. If not initially, it may happen when they add another VPN
in the future.
